The whole notion of the de Charlus’ quest I find to be very interesting. Charlus feels that only use horn topology and compression drivers is able to deliver “superior” audio result, at least it was his experience. I do not feel that horn topolog...

[quote user="twogoodears"] I learned nonetheless to use for my (limited) task (fine tuning my speakers and audio system in my music room) the great IVIE IE-30 R.T.A. and IVIE IE-20 white/pink noise generator [/quote]
You do not need white/pink...

Someone stopped me at the Alexis Park and told me: “Romy, there is a new Israeli guy in town with his amassing horn. He has a room at the St. Tropes and you should go”. I was almost offended! There was a new horn guy and I never insulted him?!!...

I would disagree and would hardly be calling the WGBH Panel Discussion a “great success”. In fact I am calling the event as “great disappointment”. S...

[quote user="OracleAV"] Are you
kidding? What is the purpose for any of us audiophile spending thousands
of dollars for dedicated AC circuits, for clean power through AC
regeneration? It is to have improve the quality of the sound - be

It is very self-evident for kind public this clown is working. From all BS that was expressed about me I would point just two facts:
1) I never kicked Joe Roberts from my site and according to site's memebers log he keeps visiting daily.2) I d...

[quote user="tuyen"]When i change the cutoff of the 505tt to 200hz and 250hz, I experience that same 'hole' you mention about. Hence why I was questioning if it is the 160hz le'clech horn causing this and if using the goto s150 horn with it's di...

Thanks, Keith.
I isolated this topic in a separate thread, reading to the end you might understand why.
Those commentaries that something is “100% original” I usually take with a lot of suspicion and it usually is an indication that the peo...

Well, writing a critical material about the Moronity of
audio videos out there I presumably put myself in a position of a person "who
knows better". The reality of the things is that if I do believe that I
know better and if my task would be t...

[quote user="Amir"] i think the audio industry
destroyed audio.[/quote]
Amir, yes it is very much true but not in the context you
think it is true. The main force of audio industry distraction of audio was not
introduction of bad equipment or fau...

Was talking with various audio people about the 6C33C I was amazed that people are so clueless about this tube. The people are so filled with some foolish prejudges and faulty notions about 6C33C that I deseeded to put together a brief “6C33C user ma...

I would like to make a few comments about the entire idea of those expensive Japanese compression drivers: GOTO, ALE and alike. I have voiced the near-similar outlook about the irrational exuberance that some audio people express about electromagnet ...

I was asked a few days ago what I think about Zandèn new CD player and I replied that I do not think about it.
Truly, those companies produce new models each 18 month to initiate new rounds of cash extraction from clueless, deaf and blind audi...

I posted this request at the Yahoo FM group, the place reportedly owned by the Reichsführer-SS Bob Fitzgerald, I have mention that Moron-wanna-be-in-charge before. Thankfully that cretin does not show up there and the air in that bulletin blog is fre...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I did not say how my saga with APS Pure Power regenerator finish but it never finished. Since the end of the last year the regenerators is sitting in my closet and I have sent the unit’s main board to APS people for the “re...

It kind of strange that so many manufactures produce preamps, so many users use preamps but no one talks about them seriously. The dealers sell them, the reviewers write their doodle but the manufactures do each year a new version but what we, th...

user="anthony"]My preferred source is a Phasure NOS1a G3 dac.
The thing has no discernible sound of it's own. It outputs 1.25VRMS SE
and I run it at -6dB because it needs a little attenuation to sound its best
which means 0.625VRMS. I d...

Romy, I will attempt to fill you in on some backstory.
My Placette was purchased from a guy in France. My dac is made in the Netherlands. To an Australian that is just like next door. I have a good and strong rel...

OK, sounds reasonable. There are plenty concerns that I would
rise with the speaker idea you proposed. However, lately begin to feel that
many of the things I have stated or might state in audio do not find proper
ears to be herd. It is not that w...

Cody, sweat hart, why do you do it to me? Why are
you making me at the very first day to destroy the very best in me? Just last
night I made a New Year resolution promising to be kinder to the idiots who are
forming high-end audio industry and tod...

This was the most astonishing and bewildering moment of my
entire audio life. It was in 2000. That time I lived in cozy downtown Boston
apartment that I absolutely loved. The apartment sounded fabulously with pretty
much any playback you put in. A...

user="martinshorn"]But I replied assuming such a question is raised
by someone who has experienced DIY background and basics how to „design sound“.
This is of course a precondition. Of course we can’t list a „kit“ here. If we
could, the VO...

I like to stress a point that the mammals that write thier doodles for audio publication are not juts ignorant fools but also the cheap, low class, falseificators. No wonder that the audio manufacturing companies do employ the so-called reviewers as ...

[quote user="Murataltuev"]Is any
technical background behind the statement that 4" driver can't
operate in 300-1000Hz because resonance is too low ? [/quote]
Well, you need to define what does it mean “can't operate”? Anything can operate anywhere...
